It would be practically impossible for anyone to assist you without logs. See the first link in my signature for instructions. The second link describes a free utility that automates much of the process.

-/ Indicates your home folder (the one with the house icon). Download and start LogosLogScribe. When you run it, it will create the log files and place them on your desktop. Then in your reply window, use the paper clip icon to attach them to your reply to this post.
I can't read logs, but I will insure that someone who can read them sees your post.
NOTE: run LogosLogScribe immediately after L4 switches off and before any restart attempt.

If no one reads your logs by Monday, I will send an email to Logos and call this thread to their attention.

Likewise apologies - personally did not read all 4 posts in sequential order before replying - one post for this issue with replies containing updates would have helped. Personal quirk - look at post titles, then click to read non-sequentially. Realized I read one set of logs with indexing incomplete and replied - then read different post with later set of logs that showed indexing completed and crash occurring in Bible Explorer. Another quirk, personally like some upper case letters - easier to recognize words for reading.
After posting many, many times learned posts can be deleted and edited (about 10 hours). Also have made mistakes posting in forums and editing Wiki pages - Thankful for community friendliness how to collaborate and grow together [8-|]
By the way, several forum posters also have some history of posting same topic in different threads - myself included [:$]
Calling Logos should be worthwhile - wait times are shorter when Logos opens at 6 am Pacific time.
Keep Smiling [:)]

Have used many named layouts on Mac and PC - sync between both platforms. If can open layout with Bible Explorer panel, could close Bible Explorer panel, then open Bible Explorer, followed by typing verse (see if crash repeats).
By the way, crash is preferred term for switched off - comes from physical world where a crash often causes something (e.g. motorcycle) to stop working (e.g. ran into a tree).

When talking with Logos Support, please refer to this thread. Logos4.log file in 2626.Logging.zip has first line:
"Error running gmcs: Cannot find the specified file" that is unusual, bottom of file has crash in Bible Explorer panel - not know if errors related.
Keep Smiling [:)]
